So, I have fixed up the Monolith unit and have added an icon and a wireframe, etc. from the editor that were both titled "darkpylon" believe it or not; anyway it also cloaks nearby friendly units and structures, like it said it was supposed to in the wiki. However, I have a few questions. I have made it a selectable and buildable unit and when a probe goes to build it, it does not have a warp in action, that is, it doesn't have a cool effect like the other Protoss buildings, it just sits there with a bar over it's head showing when it will be done, and no black hole appears. It just shows up and doesn't "warp in" per se. So my question is how do I add the "warping in" effects to it? Another question, it may have health and shields like all the other buildings, but it doesn't show them when you put your cursor over the building. Is there a way to fix this? I have found no way to fix this as of yet. No check box under the stats or flags, nothing. Oh, and there doesn't seem to be a placement model for the Monolith. Is there a place I can find one that anyone knows of? I appreciate any help that is given.
Yeah, that was helpful. I added the unit to the list and it was able to be created. I actually did it under ProtossBuildingBirthSmall, but whatever.
As for the UI I think I missed that because I didn't have the Advanced Settings enabled, but thanks again. I have already added you in the credits and yes I've already made the credits because I at least know how to do that :).

Look up the ProtossBuildingBirth (Unnamed) actor and check the events out. In short you must add your unit to the list of stuff it is created for.
Try the UI - Status Bar Flags field under the Unit type actor.
